“Segment and shells” is a construction principle using tube and heating elbows to be welded.

Reusing standard elements allowed us to create and manufacture a series of simple, functional and low-cost objects, used as furniture for the Homecore showroom, a fashion house in Paris.

Thanks to the simplicity of the process, we manufactured everything on site with a minimum of tools, a saw, and a welding station.

This project is representative of our approach as designers in its economic aspect. Our knowledge of manufacturing processes and our experience with semi-finished products allow us to integrate economic concerns from the very first sketches of the creation phase.

“Segment and shells” is a constructing principle using straight and curved heating pipes.

Exploiting differently standard parts helped us create and manufacture a series of simple and low-cost objects, such as furniture for the stylist Homecore's showroom in Paris.

Thanks to the simplicity of the process, we built it on site with few tools: a saw and a spot welder.

This project is a good example of our approach as designers regarding the economic aspect. Our knowledge of manufacturing processes and our experience with semi-products allows us to integrate the economic concerns as early as the first sketching in the creation stage.
